# That means "traced" right?
I remember when Prince of Persia came out and everyone was all excited about "rotoscoped graphics."

Would people be so excited if they knew rotoscoping was just tracing with a glorified name?

# I never said rotoscoping was bad.
I just was commenting on how people hyped the fuck outta it when they had no idea what it was.

# I like to think that a 'Rotoscope' is some sort of fantastical heath robinson sort of machine
I imagine it would look a bit like a giant micorfishe viewer with knobs on, and they would sell on e-bay for thousands of pounds

# Yes! It certainly should be
and should have "ROTOSCOPE" written on it in shiny silver 1950's writing.

I wish for you to Photoshop such a thing and post it on the board for our amusement!

# Rotoscoping goes back ages, for example the Disney artists "rotoscoped" Snow White
The term has been around ages, it's not the Price of Persia makers fault if people are thick.

*edit - a brief bit of research suggests that Max Fleischer coined the phrase in 1914
